Grippy tannins and savory herbs lead on the palate.  With plenty of acid and a backdrop of pungent oregano and bell pepper, this is a wine that calls for lean steak, cooked tomatoes, tacos, or green lentils.  A surprisingly vegetable-friendly red and very pairable on the table. 

About Domaine Brocourt

Located in the heart of the Chinon appellation, Philippe Brocourt tends 32 hectares of vines spread over 5 villages. Philippe took over the estate from his father in 1986. The vineyard stands on gravel plains, clay-siliceous ridges and clay-limestone slopes, farmed using sustainable viticulture methods. Philippe's best vintages come from his oldest plots. Many are situated on a combination of dense clay and limestone soils, calling for extensive barrel aging to tame their inherently assertive structure. His vintages are a balance of tannin and architecture, very food-friendly and age-worthy.
